You can’t pray to me and keep your guns!

The themes of grief sometimes bubble over into righteous rage. In 2018, after the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school in Parkland, Fla., Leckey began working on the song “Can’t Pray to Me.” In the bluesy, boisterous track, Leckey sings from the perspective of Mother Mary. “I am the mother of all children / I am the lady keeping watch,” she sings, imagining how Mary might react to gun violence in the U.S. today. “You can’t pray to me and keep your guns.”
[ … ]
Instead, Hell Gate is “not about being queer in the church — it just is queerness in the church,” she said. “There are so many ways to be Catholic. And being a queer person is inherently creative. God delights in our creativity.”
That last paragraph is a lie. Mary isn’t the person she described, and I’m not Roman Catholic anyway and I only pray to the Father through Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit.
So in a short missive, she missed on all cylinders. I’ll keep my guns, thank you.
Sheesh. How does society produce imbeciles like this?
Nice try, Grace. Come back after you’ve studied a bit and we’ll talk.

This isn’t accidental. It’s deliberate leftist propaganda.

Hi Herschel…..,
Above post “DAN” said,”It’s deliberate leftist propaganda.”
Funny how that goes….. Prior to when “Don” won “the first one” the general feeling I had was that “They” had this rigged and “They” were going to walk away with it…BUT,.. They were ‘Overconfident,” let the cards fall as they did and boy did they underestimate their voting base!! DON WON!!
Ever since that election night … well.. the LEFT has gone…. if not before then, then definitely after that night…… completely and totally “ROGUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” …….
Back then, that election night, the LEFT, went in to a complete and total melt down!!!! There are several vid’s you can find on U-Tube and here is just one!!!! It’s short but there s a 30 or so min version with most of this same stuff……
……. youtube.com/watch?v=UtJvYdX4GKM ……
‘hope this works!!!
It doesn’t take a lot to figure out how that happened….. The “Rules of Engagement” changed forever that night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS I can’t help but wonder what Mike Vanderboegh would have to say today after all that has transpired!!!!!!!!!!

Homosexual acts are considered gravely disordered and a mortal sin in Catholic Doctrine. There’s absolutely NO wiggle room.
Same for abortion, not just just a mortal sin, but automatic excommunication for anyone involved in an abortion.
Period. Again, NO wiggle room.

Like Mr. Smith, I’ll be keeping my guns, and I will continue going to Mass. Guns are tools, and unfortunately, clueless people only see the negative aspect of a tool that has taken a bad wrap due to bad people.
It is our responsibility as gun owners to try to influence these clueless people. Let’s help educate them where we can. However, I recognize some people are not able to be brough back from the cliff of stupidity.

What’s concerning isn’t so much their ignorance, it’s that they’re utterly convinced otherwise.

My wife is Catholic and I’ve gone to the Roman Mass with her for forty years so have some understanding. From her POV the power of Catholicism is that it doesn’t change on the basis of what has been normed in the culture; rather it is defined by the concept of the “Magisterium”. Likewise the exhortation of Popes is just that — the opinion of a bishop of Rome.

Apostasy from the top down. It’s why I left the Catholic Church long ago.
